Simpson Electric 46006 Led Display Encoder Wheel

Product Description

The SIMPSON ELECTRIC 46006 is an LED display encoder wheel designed for use in counting and position-sensing applications. This component combines a rotary encoder mechanism with an integrated LED display, allowing technicians and engineers to read positional or count data directly from the unit. It is suited for panel-mount instrumentation setups where a compact, readable display is required. The 46006 ships as a single unit and is a direct catalog part from Simpson Electric, a manufacturer known for analog and digital panel instruments used in industrial and commercial electrical systems.

This encoder wheel is intended for use in industrial control panels, test equipment, and instrumentation assemblies where precise count or position readout is needed. Electricians and instrumentation technicians working on panel builds or equipment retrofits are the primary installers. Its LED display format makes it readable in low-light panel environments without additional lighting. The unit is a single-package item suited for both new installations and replacement of existing encoder display assemblies.

Key Features

• Integrated LED display provides direct visual readout of encoder position or count
• Encoder wheel design suits rotary position and counting applications
• Compact single-unit package for panel-mount instrumentation use
• Lightweight construction at approximately 0.34 pounds
• Single-unit minimum order quantity for low-volume or replacement procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-build component for panel instrumentation assemblies requiring an LED-type encoder display wheel. No specific compatible model numbers were provided in the product data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or instrumentation technician familiar with panel-mount encoder components. De-energize the panel or equipment fully before removing or installing the encoder wheel. Follow applicable NEC guidelines for control panel wiring and component installation. Consult the equipment manufacturer's documentation for mounting orientation and connector specifications before proceeding.
